: "The
numerous
engravings
were, with
few
exceptions
,
copied
from
drawings
taken
on the
spot
by the
compilers
of the
work
. In these
engravings
,
our
principal
object
was to
give
faithful
reproductions
,
rather
than
picturesqe
views
, or
beautiful
specimens
of the
art.
" The
view
was
taken
from
some
point
in
Niagara
St
.
Near
Niagara

.
towards
Main

3

,
51
schooners

sloops
, a
total

67

tonnage
of
7,500
tons
